Tuve una experiencia increíble en tigerlily para el desayuno, tuve uno de los mejores servicios que he recibido muchas gracias Kathryn y sin duda volveré la próxima vez que esté en Edimburgo 😁😁

Mi madre y mi hijo visitaron el restaurante el 6 de julio. Lamentablemente, mi madre se puso mal y hubo que llamar a una ambulancia. Mi hijo estaba extremadamente molesto al ver a su abuela enferma, pero dijo que el personal era absolutamente excelente haciendo que mi mamá se sintiera cómoda y apoyando tanto a él como a mi mamá. En realidad cerraron el restaurante mientras esperaban la ambulancia y se negaron a tomar dinero para la comida que habían comenzado a comer. Quiero decir un agradecimiento masivo por la amabilidad mostrada con mi madre y mi hijo, realmente significó mucho. Por lo que mi madre y mi hijo respondieron, el personal fue excepcional, trayendo mis cojines de mamá para que estuviera cómoda y haciendo tazas de té. Todos ustedes son un crédito absoluto y tan compasivos. -Muchas gracias.

chipsy king has great speed when serving, however lost 2 stars since they had NO smoked sausage for me coming. they should have known i was gonna be there

Esta es mi opción - para un almuerzo rápido en Edimburgo. Gran comida casera, servicio amable, asientos al aire libre cuando el clima de Edimburgo lo permite. Puede estar ocupado a veces. Pides en el mostrador y sacas comida. Suelo tomar sopa, pero encantador - quiches de aspecto y ensalada también.

Came to Edinburgh on a 2-day stint to get a taste of the city. Seen this coffee place as one of the recommended and went in eager to taste. Upon entering, it was an unwelcoming atmosphere. In the brief interaction with one of the guys, he was extremely rude and embarrassed my friend in front of other patrons. We were tourists and visiting a number of places to get a sense of Edinburgh in general, incl. all the different recommended bakeries/coffee shops etc. We were not aware of the 'ONLY SPEND IN OUR SHOP, EAT FROM OUR SHOP' policy they had in place, and so took a snack from a local bakery that we seen recommended. Had we known that he was going to inhospitably call it out infront of everyone and make us feel unwelcome, we would never have went in. From a tourist point, its restrictive and detracts from the overall experience of exploring the area's culinary offerings - maybe the guys should keep this in mind for future given that Edinburgh is a city full of tourists? I should also mention that I initially was going to buy a snack from their cafe, as my friend had their own but I had none, however there was only one non-fresh looking croissant left on display? So we were not even aware they even did snacks. We then sat in uncomfortable silence for the duration, quickly drank the coffee, waited to pay (at least 7minutes) a hefty sum for a tiny coffee. Definitely dont recommend for tourists and will not be back

The food was served quickly and was cooked fresh. Owner said the pizza sauce is all home made and so is the kebab meat….which you could tell. Was delicious 😋

Very fun and well run adult pizza party

One of the worst Takeaways in Edinburgh. The food isn’t great at all. However, the biggest disappointment is the angry, aggressive and damn right rude Chinese lady with the terrible English accent who answers the phone. Some of the worst customers experience I’ve ever seen, incredibly disrespectful. I’m truly surprised they get to operate in a city like Edinburgh with that level of service. I’ll never order from this place again and strongly recommend no one else does either.

We were trying to find a particular restaurant when we finally asked a woman walking her dog only to find out that our map app was confused to say the least. She recommended V and C which was close by. The restaurant is located in the back of a very nice neighborhood grocery and wine store. The Italian food was exceptional and the prices were very reasonable. The wine selection was fantastic. The best cappuccino and desserts were out of this world. Why they aren’t rated higher is beyond me!

Disclaimer: This review is going to be different! Christmas of 1991, my family spent the holidays in Scotland. On Christmas Eve, everything in Edinburgh was closed. We walked the streets looking for dinner. Topkapi doors were unlocked, so we walked in. The gentleman greeted us and apologized that they were closed. Then told us to wait and have a seat. A little while passed and he started bringing bowls of beef, chicken and lamb. I can’t remember what sides he brought because the meat was exquisite, some of the best I’ve ever had. I can’t recall all of the laughter and sharing with the gentleman, or his name. But, when everyone had their fill and thankful that he took care of us on Christmas Eve, he refused to let us pay for any of it. Recently, while sitting with my mother while my father is in ICU at the hospital, we reminisced about those travels and the memory created by that gentleman at Topkapi in Edinburgh. If their food is still half as incredible now as it was then, you must visit them! I will take my children one day.

Awful over priced menu the prices are near double the average price in Edinburgh.

Delicious pie and sticky toffee pudding! Great service and warm and cosy atmosphere

Just nipped in for a pint to fill some time. £6.70 for a pint of Guinness.

Really cool place. Great, varied menu and very attentive staff. For the price it was a clear 10/10
